Ups and downs

Pros

Great coworkers. Good customers. Always hours available. Usually flexible if life comes up and you need a specific day off.

Cons

My biggest gripe is with the leadership. The gm for our store came to a work meeting and told us all we are just numbers to the company, and nothing else matters. Then proceeded to explain percentages in terms of pennies on the dollar and talked down to us. It's all very insulting especially when you bust your booty to make money for the owners and yourself and keep the shop running smooth. L Always at work and if you say you need to atep back you're dragging the team down.

We are sorry about your frustrations with the management. Since each salon is independently owned and operated, your concerns can be best addressed by your franchisee. If you'd like, you can email Jeanne@greatclips.com with the salon location where you are employed. We can then forward it to your franchisee for follow up with you. Thank you for your feedback.

The greatest job ever

Pros

Well in Wilmington, Nc we had good reasons to reach our goals, they gave us bonuses! they gave us cute aprons with our years of service and our names on it once you got your mile stone, so that gave me a reason to stay oh and plus a longevity check. And they trained me 100 percent to give quality haircuts. And if I was behind in something theyd have classes to help you work on things you feel behind in. Product sales, flat tops, anything.

Cons

Well not all franchisees are the same. Same company standard but some great clips owners just are about the bottom dollar and not the employees or customers. So where as some will go all out to train they're employees to do the best job. The slum owners will just throw you to the wolves you'll either make it or not.
